The Isis mobile payment system has shelved plans for creating their own network, likely because it will just cost them far too much in the long run. The payment system so far has been a standalone service that was created by both AT&T and T-Mobile before the acquisition. This will utilize the Discover payment network and will allow for users to more easily make small purchases through their mobile devices.

Although the plans to release the payment system are still on schedule, they have scrapped plans to create a network of their own. The Wall Street Journal recently released an article in which they quoted multiple sources that stated that they were going to be ending their plans for creating their own network.

The idea of the Isis mobile payment system is that it will provide users with a mobile wallet of sorts that will allow for them to pay for small ticket items quickly using their mobile device. The device should also be able to provide users with personalized coupons that come straight from the mobile device itself.

Look for Isis to release more information about their service moving forward. So far the companies have been tight lipped regarding their plans for the payment portal. They are working on a swipe to buy proposition that will allow for users to make payments directly from their mobile device and will also provide them with a card to swipe through credit card machines until technology is made available to move away from this.

Cisco is going to be restructuring their business, and has stated that they are going to be killing off certain parts of their business. They will make a larger effort to focus on the core of the company, including collaboration, services and video. Their popular camera, the Flip, will no longer be in the company’s plans as a result of their restructuring. The company has said that they will continue to support those that had already purchased the phone, but would not be dedicating any more resources to the development of the device.

They claimed that a larger profitability was the main reasoning behind their decision to restructure. In rent years they had moved more toward the retail end of things, when that was previously not the type of products that they had put forward. They are looking to get deeper into video and explore new ways to profit.

The company said in a statement that the company was making a number of targeted moves to end in a new platform strategy for the company. It is good to hear that they will continue to provide support for Flip users, despite the fact that they will no longer be releasing new versions of the device.

As Cisco’s profits have fallen in recent months, many have expected for plans to be made to change the direction that they were heading. Today’s announcement shows that they are now looking into their past and their future for new revenue sources and are concentrating on aspects of their business that they have a strong hold over.

It will be interesting to see if they release any more retail products like the Flip Video, or if they will take things in a completely different directions.
